    @Bluah97 Sensor is decent, I think it’s either 3370 or 3395, and it performs amazing in game, no issues when playing any game, and doesn’t feel any different than any other mouse using a 480hz monitor in Overwatch

    @ceroeit Thank you! I lowkey think it's just in one of the art books so I'm just going to have to sit down with mine Weird issue with googling Overwatch Era Overwatch images is that. That's the. Name of the franchise. So it doesn't work

    @bnpar26 @GagasLeftT0e It is a problem. DVA has been broken since the start of overwatch. She still is, she is after Freja the most banned tank in higher ranks

    Why am I flipping banned because overwatch kicked me out???? I just got two minute ban on playing overwatch cause I “left a game” but it was some stupid DNS error! I did not intentionally leave a game!

    am i bad at overwatch or is everyone else on my team the problem

  • dwight_shoda
    Dwight (@dwight_shoda) reported

    @Rambo_Hair @GermanStrands that was hardly the issue, from what i saw the game itself ran fine. it was probably the most optimized hero shooter ive seen. very little problems. the biggest issue was character design, marketing and 8 years too late for hero shooters when Overwatch 2 fails to draw a crowd

  • Daphne_de_Vil
    Daph!! ☆-☆ (@Daphne_de_Vil) reported

    @trabucooo1 @OverwatchNaeri Yeah that’s kiriko, and everyone agrees its an issue, but she is basically overwatch’s poster girl and also i thoight u didnt care about skins.. so why are u speaking so much on skins now if they add nothing to the game?

  • Ls_Cree_art
    Cree (@Ls_Cree_art) reported

    Are we as a community gonna take responsibility, when are you the player gonna take accountability? If never then quit ya crying and play the game, if you got a problem with it go play overwatch where you will have the same issue

    @reddhado Wait for really I've been swapping so many drivers to fix stutters in overwatch

    WTF was I doing like november period man I woke up and played overwatch all day wtf was my problem + talked to redacted all day ofc I was depressed

  • CrazyRh1no
    Ryancrazyrhino (@CrazyRh1no) reported

    @CY4N4R4 I think that's one of my issues with Overwatch right now, there's no actual new content and I reached a point in my life where Skins don't matter to me and I hate the cash shop and how scummy it is, but at least Fortnite has new events and modes alongside is cash shop.

  • bungie765
    bungie (@bungie765) reported

    @JimSerna1 @StreetFighter I don’t believe so. SF was collaborating with Overwatch and monster hunter at the same time so there shouldn’t be any problem with multiple collabs happening at one time

    @SamitoFPS @MarvelRivals Support is always a problem in every game Overwatch League Rivals Unite Always the most brain dead and broken role.

    @Blizzard_Ent please fix your game? I've been suspended enough times because of your servers. It's ruining my experience of overwatch 2

  • miwiamundertale
    Miriam 'fuckng' Undertale (@miwiamundertale) reported

    See the issue with wow currently is that it was originally designed to be tf2 but over time has become overwatch, and no matter what version of the game you try to launch the community only wants overwatch

  • grok
    Grok (@grok) reported

    Network interpolation delay in Overwatch 2, typically around 31.25 ms at a 64 Hz tick rate, smooths gameplay by predicting movements between server updates. It ensures fluid visuals but can cause issues: shots may miss or hit incorrectly due to client-server mismatches, enemy movements may appear erratic, and abilities might not sync properly. Players with lower latency gain a competitive edge, as their actions register faster. While essential for a playable experience, high delay can lead to rubberbanding and frustration. Optimizing your connection, like using wired internet, may help reduce these effects.

    @Pirat_Nation And I'll double down in not caring about any of Sony's live service games, until they make something more interesting then another Apex Legends, and Overwatch clone.

  • Sykii_

    @Bloomzor @DumbsYT @Necrit94 I tried to argument it further on another answer. The problem is that I don't know why does he say that so I can't really fight it with arguments, from my perspective league is not on a bad spot and has been on way worse ones. Like overwatch or Fortnite release

    Unfortunately I have having issues with my Overwatch 2. I need to update the bios for my PC, I will have to do this tomorrow but at the same time I will have to cancel stream for tomorrow. I'm sorry to anyone that was looking forward to the playing with viewers OW2 stream ToT

    So I'm not the only one having lagging problems on Overwatch lately right?

  • KungFuMan316
    Kung Fu Man (@KungFuMan316) reported

    @ThatOddGuyDave From what I gather the issue is Overwatch 2's structure doesn't allow it to be ported over as is, but they should still be able to simply remake it.

  • I_am_Turok
    We_Are_Turok (@I_am_Turok) reported

    @pampurins i would say that its not really an issue... and that ive survived with a 90% heal reduction... but... overwatch is genuinely built differently and the hero design philosophy never supported cauterized healing, so i get it. it feels suffocating. idk how to help though

  • HoldFininity
    Trifinity (@HoldFininity) reported

    @MulticamOw overwatch had this same problem.

  • parnormalpncake

    @arrkstan They were pivoting at every possible turn lol, overwatch comes out- "make it live service" Anthem comes out - "redo the game and make it single player, but water it down for a broad audience" Forspoken comes out - "this shits too lighthearted rewrite the whole game again" wut

    @taro0o0o0o0o0o @Irumaame im saying stop giving your opinions about every little thing overwatch releases? is that a ******* crime? i genuinely cannot stomach arguing w people who cannot grasp the concept that not everyone is itching for problems to the point where asking for less problems is an issue jfc

    @ShitpostRock Blizzard, it's not even close. From Warcraft 3 to current WoW... From Diablo 2 to Diablo 4 VoH... From Overwatch to the many broken promises of OW2...
